The Grand Rapids Press is reporting that a Juanita Richardson from northern Michigan died after a 200ft plus fall from the cliffs around Miners Castle. Park officals said this is the first falling dead in the history of the 40 year old park, but oddly enough it is the third falling death in a National Park in the last week. Other falling deaths occured at Yellowstone and Mount Rainier.
